Sick puppy

My little sick puppy is the most resilient pupper ever, just like she has always been. She survived 3 surgeries, did not shed a drop of tear when the doctor inserted an IV catheter into her hand 3 months ago for a MAG3 scan and now, she bounced back after ‘being away’ for 2 days. The 2 days were pretty worrisome for me. Her body felt like a bed of hot charcoal at 39+ degrees Celsius. She was hallucinating, had nilch appetite and did not eat much solids nor fluids for 2 days. I am very very happy that I got my nottie and chatter-box samseng back today, thank God, PTL!

My sick kitty at the height of her high fever can still muster a smile for mummy but had no strength to say “don’t put in your Facebook mummy!”

Today, there was a breakout of dots on her entire body. First time mummies would freak out and fear measles, chicken pox and Dengue fever. But an experienced mummy would just heave a sigh of relief and say good-bye to the high fever. That was what happened to Alycia, my eldest, exactly 5 years ago when she was Baby’s age. We brought her to a paed at Pantai Hospital who did a string of blood tests on her. He was an old doctor but nothing was conclusive. He just did not know what was wrong with Alycia. But my clever mum told me that I was just like that when I was little and assured me that there was nothing wrong with Alycia. My body would have a breakout of rashes/spots too after a bout of high fever. Now, whenever my girls have rashes / spots all over their face and body after a bout of high fever, I don’t freak out anymore but just monitor closely.  But high fever is no play-play matter ok.  Must make sure that your kids’ high fever is under control.
